VIRTUAL BOOK TOUR AND REVIEW OF NO HOPE FOR GOMEZ BY GRAHAM PARKE

Join Graham Parke, author of the humor suspense novel, No Hope for Gomez (Outskirts Press), as he virtually tours the blogosphere on his first virtual book tour with Pump Up Your Book!

Meet Gomez Porter and average guy who joins an experimental drug trial and then his life becomes interesting. He is asked to keep a blog of any of his experiences and feelings while taking the drug. He falls for the lab assistant who believes she is being stalked and Gomez decides to become her “stalker-stalker” to find out who the culprit is. Does he find out who it is?

When one of the drug trial participants is found dead and one is missing, Gomez is afraid that he will be next. He decides to do a little detective work and he hides out in a neighbor’s apartment for safety. What will happen to Gomez? I guess you have to read the book to find out.

Graham Parke lives in the Netherlands with his wife and son. He’s responsible for a number of technical publications, and has recently patented a self-folding map. He has been described as both a humanitarian and a pathological liar. Convincing evidence to support either allegation has yet to be produced. No Hope For Gomez is his debut novel.

My Thoughts-

When I started to read the book, I was unsure of what to expect since it was written in blog format. I am not a fan of books written in the form of a blog but I found the book easy to read and it was very humorous. Gomez lived in a strange and unpredictable world full of many crazy characters especially the man with the sombrero who visits Gomez at his job a couple of times. Is there hope For Gomez? I will never tell. So go on out and get a copy of this great little book.

Disclaimer: I was given a free copy of the book from Pump Up Your Book for my honest review. I was not compensated for my review.
